    I live in the area. I can truly say Russian/Ukrainian people are the nicest most hospitable people. As an African American I can walk into any Russian establishment and don’t feel afraid. No one is following me. They treat you just like one of them. I’ve experienced racism all my life growing up in America and I can truly say Russians are a different kind of white people😂 I did some research as to why and found a lot of very interesting surprising history.
    Yes, there might be one or two who is racist but it’s so few…..( ..once in 10 years) that it doesn’t effect how I feel walking in Brighton or interacting with anyone. I’m a hospice nurse and I love going to Russian peoples home! The best! I have even learned to speak some Russian. Most of my older patients speak to me in Russian so I pretty much had no choice😂😂😂😂 My neighbors are great!

My first time in Russia was really just a transit in Moscow but it was still technically the Soviet Union for one more year! I travelled back then to Vietnam by way of Aeroflot from Montreal. The trip was on an IL62 which is the coolest looking passenger jet ever built with only exception being the Concorde. Here in Vietnam where I live we have excellent Russian food as there is some Russian community. I have been to Russia a few times since then and have been able to travel around and visit homes of the families of Russian friends from Vietnam. People who misunderstand Russia from the press should go there and see it. Peace through understanding!

    I move to Kip's Bay this fall, and am currently trying to find some places in that area. I think this channel might be the key to my research!

    I enjoyed this video on Brighton Beach......I learned to read & speak a bit of Russian and once a year my wife & I would visit the only Russian store I know of in Hollywood, Fl called "World Supermarket" at Christmas time and buy candies & pastries made locally. This was great Jon. Walt in Miami
